This fantastic, light Benihana onion soup is a fan favorite at the popular Japanese Steakhouse, and it's surprisingly easy to make. The soup goes by many names but is always loaded with onion flavor and then topped with mushrooms, scallions, and fried onions. You can make my easy copycat soup recipe at home in no time!
